The phase shift of self-modulation oscillations induced in a solid-state ring laser by an external magnetic field is studied theoretically and experimentally. It is found that the phase shift is caused by the amplitude nonreciprocity of the ring laser due to the Faraday effect in an active medium. (nonlinear optical phenomena)
